Building relationships builds markets. 🌎

After touring several grain and ethanol locations, visiting with Missouri Corn staff, and getting a firsthand view of the U.S. export system, members of a trade team, led by the U.S. Grains & BioProducts Council, signed a memorandum of understanding during Export Exchange last week. The MOU between USGBC and BioPower Energy signifies intention to procure 50-100% of its feedstock needs from U.S. suppliers, with an initial guaranteed minimum floor of 39 million bushels purchased annually.

Thank you Mark Alford for supporting farmers and drivers by pushing for year-round access to homegrown, more affordable fuel at the pump nationwide. We need ! 🌽🌽

SHOW-ME RESULTS 🇺🇸

I’ve been fighting to lower fuel costs and make life more affordable for Missouri families. That’s why I voted YES for year-round E-15. It means more American-made fuel options, lower prices at the pump, and a stronger market for our farmers.

Real savings for drivers. Real support for rural Missouri. ⛽🌽🇺🇸
